ORTHODONTICS
Completing orthodontic treatment is only the first step—maintaining your results is just as important. At Empower Dental Pasadena, we provide custom-made retainers that are crafted for comfort, durability, and long-term effectiveness.
If your retainer has been lost, damaged, or no longer fits properly, we can create a replacement quickly and easily so your smile stays aligned and protected for years to come.
At Empower Dental, we believe your smile is worth protecting. Whether you need a new retainer or a fast, affordable replacement, we’re here to help you maintain the results you worked so hard to achieve.
We are located at the corner of Allen Avenue and Washington Boulevard in Pasadena, CA. Call (626-654-4507) to schedule your appointment today.
Orthodontic treatment doesn’t end the day your braces or aligners come off. Retainers play a critical role in keeping your teeth from shifting back to their old positions, protecting the time and investment you’ve made in your smile. Without consistent retainer use, it’s common for teeth to slowly drift and undo the progress you’ve achieved.
At Empower Dental, we design retainers that are custom-fit, comfortable, and long-lasting—available in both removable and fixed styles depending on your needs.
Every smile is unique, and so is the type of retainer that will work best for you. At Empower Dental Pasadena, we provide several options designed for comfort, durability, and long-term protection against shifting teeth:

Taking care of your retainer is just as important as wearing it. With the right habits, you can extend the life of your appliance and keep your smile stable for years to come. Here’s what we recommend:
If your retainer is lost, broken, or no longer fitting properly, don’t wait to replace it—your teeth can shift quickly without support. At Empower Dental Pasadena, we use advanced digital impressions (iTero, Medit, TRIOS) to capture a precise 3D model of your teeth and create a new retainer without the mess of traditional molds. Our CAD/CAM and 3D printing systems allow us to fabricate replacements quickly, accurately, and comfortably.

Most patients wear their retainer full-time at first, then transition to nighttime use. Long-term wear is often necessary to maintain results.
Contact us right away. The sooner you replace it, the better your chances of preventing shifting.

Thanks to our in-house digital scanning and 3D printing tech, we can often deliver replacements quickly—sometimes the same day.
